Pre flop positional raising
One weak limper to you on the button. Assuming average blinds how bad a hand do you need to raise here?
I am struggling to maintain my standards. Recently I have begun to raise regularly with K9o, Q9s, A8o (I'm talking Party 10-20). I have also flirted with the idea of raising even weaker hands before common sense prevailed and I switched the mouse from raise to fold at the last moment. But maybe it wouldn't be so bad to raise with other hands here. Nate mentioned in a post recently that raising any two first in from the button is only very slightly minus EV. I am wondering how bad it would be to virtually ignore the weak limper and just go ahead and raise the blinds (with the usual range) as if he wasn't there? Maybe I am just on my way to being a maniac. My Pfr has been getting higher and higher (over 16 now). Maybe I am one already. Gazza |

[/ QUOTE ] Good question, I think position is worth a lot in SH holdem. And I think being the preflopraiser is worth a lot in SH. I am not sure its ever good limping after 1 limper unless blinds are very loose. I mean: limping indicates a not so good player. I am limping but I would like to turn some of those limps into raises. Maybe suited hands is still worth limping with because you want players if u hit a draw with something like T-high? Raising K9o in this spot, yep, think its good. Maybe also J9s, Q9s, 98s, A5o and up, Axs, 55. |
